It was the strangest thing
eyes like lamp posts
over me
she sees God in the luna’s wing
Wait, I still wait, wait I still wait
Wait for, you and I still wait, you and I still wait
Wait for, you to wash away, you to wash away
Wait for you and I still wait, for you to wash away
and make us new...
It’s in the simple things
looking upward through the trees
{We fall faster than the leaves}
I saw your love in the thread of a sweater,
like the gold in the ring on the bone of her finger.
This is love.
There’s a man on the boat who can walk upon water.
Heard him say, there’s a town, coming down,
ya it’s not to far away.
Stop your dressing up, you poor and needy putting on a show
Don’t you know, I see every sin that slowly slips your brain.
Every night, stripped of sleep, soaked in lust,
all the same. Oh I see it all,
I see it all and love you all the same.
{And I was on your mind and still
an unconvincing child.
I stole all your holy words
and now I’m waiting on your tongue.}
wait I still wait....
